Step by Step Installing Composer

Since Composer works with the current working directory it is possible to install it in a system wide way.

1. Change into a directory in your path like cd /usr/local/bin
2. Get Composer curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
3. Make the phar executable chmod a+x composer.phar
4. Change into a project directory cd /path/to/my/project
5. Use Composer as you normally would composer.phar install
